From Your Inbox: External Review of the UBC Sauder School of Business

This message was originally sent to DAP students by email on March 6, 2026. We’re sharing it here for easy reference.

Dear DAP Students,

The UBC Sauder School of Business will undergo an external academic review in November 2026 as part of UBC’s regular quality assurance process.

A team of external reviewers will visit UBC Sauder from November 2–4, 2026, and will meet with members of the community, including students. The review will examine the quality of our academic programs, teaching, research, and student experience, as well as the School’s leadership and overall direction. The goal is to ensure Sauder continues to provide a strong learning environment and to identify opportunities for future improvement.

Please see the attached memorandum from the Office of the Provost and Vice-President, Academic for additional details. Best regards,

Office of the Provost and Vice-President, Academic
The University of British Columbia
